Damage In Tolland Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 39 minutes ago, powderfreak said: From my friend M.H. in Montreal... this looked like a legit damaging ice storm. They are actually probably lucky a lot of it was convective. They were getting thunderstorms at like 26 degrees, and probably had some runoff without getting the full weight of the QPF. That is what it’s all about right there. That is perfect. I had half that amount of ice but couple it with 55+mph wind gusts.. all kinds of damage broke loose. Ice is absolutely awesome 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had that in the "Jim Cantore ORH thundersnow" storm in the 90's, changed over to heavy heavy thundersleet and eventually changed to thunderzr. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe teens for sunrise service tomorrow. Tha Montreal damage seems disproportionally great for the accretion - maybe some wind with the TS? Of course, most of the breakage appeared to be Norway and silver maples, both noted for ice damage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the low dews of like 8F and NW 20 is making it hard for the sun to overcome right now. The real prize is tomorrow afternoon onward IMO. Monday should be sublime. Although this same set-up doesn't feel or look like it does outside in November. It's so bright out there. Sun in April just hits differently.

I sort of had the same thought. Big, old and heavy tree variety. The older stuff that was planted when those neighborhoods were built... same tree the whole length of streets and all of them damaged.

wxeyeNH Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Mark your calendar and put in for a vacation day now. The astronomical event of a lifetime is coming to New England a year from today. (April 8 2024) A total eclipse of the sun. The path of totality passes through NNE. I saw one in Aruba many years ago and it is something you will always remember. Fingers crossed the weather is as good as today. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
